Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrofotografische Aufzeichnungstrommel mit einer anorganischen, fotoleitfähigen Schicht auf ihrem außen -. Mantel.The invention relates to an electrophotographic recording drum with an inorganic, photoconductive one - layer on her outside. A coat.

Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, für elektrostatische Fotokopierverfahren Trommeln zu verwenden, die eine Oberflächenschicht aus fotoleitfähigem Material wie Selen oder Chalkogenid-Gläsern (Arsen-Selen-Legierungen und -Verbindungen) haben. Eine Aufzeichnungstrommel der eingangs genannten Art ist aus der DE-OS 21 59 387 bekannt.It is known from the prior art to use drums for electrostatic photocopying processes use a surface layer of photoconductive material like selenium or chalcogenide glasses (Arsenic-selenium alloys and compounds). A recording drum of the type mentioned at the beginning Art is known from DE-OS 21 59 387.

Die erwähnten Trommeln dienen dazu, nach erfolgte·· Aufladung in einer Corona-Entladung ein auf die Oberfläche der Trommel projiziertes Abbild der zu kopierenden Vorlage aufzunehmen. Dieses Abbild ist ein elektrostatisches Ladungsbild, das nachfolgend unter Verwendung eines Tonerpulvers zu einer mit Toner beschichteten Trommel wird. Durch Aufeinanderlaufenlassen von Papier und Oberfläche der Trommel wird der eigentliche Kopiervorgang durchgeführt.The drums mentioned are used to discharge a corona discharge onto the after charging has taken place Surface of the drum to receive the projected image of the original to be copied. This image is an electrostatic charge image, which is subsequently formed into a with Toner coated drum is. By allowing the paper to collide with the surface of the drum the actual copying process is carried out.

Für Vorrichtungen dieses bekannten Kopierverfahrens ergeben sich folgende Forderungen: Das Material der fotoleitfähigen Schicht der Trommel muß eine hohe Lichtempfindlichkeit haben, und zwar im Spektralbereich technisch üblicher Lichtquellen; das Material muß einen spezifischen elektrischen Widerstand in Dunkelheit in der Größe von ρ > 10l2Ohm · cm haben; das Material muß auch bei Dauerbelastung unveränderte Eigenschaften aufweisen, d. h. ermüdungsfrei arbeiten, und es muß eine für das Kopieren ausreichende Abriebfestigkeit haben,For devices of this known copying process, the following requirements arise: The material of the photoconductive layer of the drum must have a high sensitivity to light, namely in the spectral range of technically common light sources; the material must have a specific electrical resistance in the dark of ρ> 10 l2 ohm · cm; the material must have unchanged properties even under constant load, i.e. work without fatigue, and it must have sufficient abrasion resistance for copying,

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein solches Material für die fotoleitfähige Schicht einer solchen Aufzeichnungstrommel zu finden, das die voranstehen' den Forderungen zusammengenommen erfüllt.The object of the present invention is to provide such Material for the photoconductive layer of such To find recording drum that meets the above 'the requirements taken together.

Diese Aufgäbe Wird dadurch gelöst, daß die fotoleitfähige Schicht als Fotoleiter amorphes Silizium enthält. Das Silizium kann insbesondere dotiert sein, womit in bekannter Weise das Leitfähigkeitsverhalten zu beeinflussen istThis task is solved in that the photoconductive layer containing amorphous silicon as a photoconductor. The silicon can in particular be doped, with which the conductivity behavior can be influenced in a known manner

Schon vor längerer Zeit sind die Eigenschaften amorphen Siliziums in bezug auf Fotoleitung und Absorption untersucht worden. Auf diesen Erkenntnissen baut die Erfindung auf. Mit dem amorphen Silizium steht ein außerordentlich hochohmiges Material mitThe properties of amorphous silicon with regard to photoconductivity and Absorption has been studied. The invention is based on these findings. With the amorphous silicon is an extremely high-resistance material with

ίο spezifischen Widerstand bis zu 10l4Ohm-em zur Verfügung.ίο Resistivity up to 10 l4 ohm-em available.

Es liegt im Rahmen des Erfindungsgedankens, daß die Herstellung dieser Schicht mit Hilfe einer Hochfrequenzglimmentladung erfolgt, wobei in dem evakuierten Gefäß mit einer tremmelförmigen Gegenelektrode ein trommeiförmiger Schichtträger konzentrisch zur Gegenelektrode angeordnet wird und zum Aufbringen des Fotoleiters eine siliziumhaltige Verbindung, die sich bei erhöhter Temperatur unter Abscheidung von Silizium zersetzt, in das Gefäß geleitet wird.It is within the scope of the inventive concept that the production of this layer with the aid of a high-frequency glow discharge takes place, with a drum-shaped counter electrode in the evacuated vessel a drum-shaped support is arranged concentrically to the counter electrode and for application of the photoconductor a silicon-containing compound, which is deposited at elevated temperature with the deposition of Silicon decomposes, is passed into the vessel.

Wenn bei der Herstellung einer Schicht aus amorphem Silizium durch Niederschlag auf einem Träger die Oberflächentemperatur dieses Trägers auf ca. 2700C gehalten wird, kann man eine amorphe Siliziumschicht erreichen, die — wie festgestellt — einen Wirkungsgrad des Fotostromes mit 50% hat. Maximaler Wirkungsgrad liegt dabei im Bereich einer Wellenlänge von ca. 600 nm. Für die erfindungsgemätSe Lehre hat der Umstand eine große Bedeutung, daß im Silizium die Elektronen und Löcher eine etwa gleich große Beweglichkeit haben. Dieser Umstand wird bei der Erfindung dazu ausgenutzt, eine fotoleitfähige Schicht zu erreichen, die praktisch keine elektrische Ermüdung aufweist, wie das bei seit Jahren bekannterweise verwendeten Materialien der Fall ist.If, during the production of a layer of amorphous silicon by precipitation on a carrier, the surface temperature of this carrier is kept at approx. 270 ° C., an amorphous silicon layer can be achieved which - as stated - has an efficiency of the photocurrent of 50%. The maximum efficiency is in the range of a wavelength of approx. 600 nm. The fact that the electrons and holes in silicon have approximately the same mobility is of great importance for the teaching according to the invention. This fact is used in the invention to achieve a photoconductive layer which has practically no electrical fatigue, as is the case with materials that have been known for years.

Da amorphe Schichten aus Silizium eine hohe Abriebfestigkeit haben, weist die elektrofotografische Aufzeichnungstrommel mit der fotoleitfähigen Schicht auf ihrem äußeren Mantel aus amorphem Silizium eineSince amorphous layers made of silicon have a high abrasion resistance, the electrophotographic Recording drum with the photoconductive layer on its outer shell made of amorphous silicon

ίο erhöhte Lebensdauer auf.ίο increased service life.
